Join
Kate Christenson as she
battles a past that was never
meant to be her own.
Fifteen year old Kate Christenson is pretty sure she’s about
to experience the worst possible summer at her grandparent’s farm in rural
Baudette, Minnesota. Without cable, cell phones, or computers, Kate is headed
for total isolation and six tedious weeks of boredom. Until the storm.
A freak
lightning accident has Kate waking up in 1960. But she is not herself. She is
the aunt she never met, but has eerily resembled her entire life. Thrust into
living a dirt poor, rural farm life, Kate struggles to make sense of her
situation- a boyfriend with a dark side, a “townie” who steals her heart, and
the knowledge that 1960 is the very summer her aunt drowns in the local river.
Even
with every precaution, Kate cannot stop fate, and an unexpected twist adds to
her dilemma. To her horror, Kate finds out firsthand her aunt’s death was not
an accident or a suicide, but something much, much worse.
